Take Me Home Tonight (2011)
This 80s nostalgia film is directed by Michael Dowse and stars Topher Grace, Anna Faris, Dan Fogler and Teresa Palmer. After graduating college and working in a video store a young man runs into his high school crush and tries to impress her.
There is not much originality in this film, it uses the standard romantic comedy plot condensed into one night with a sprinkling of coming of age angst. Anna Faris is disappointingly relegated to being a side plot which is used to pad out the film. While there are some funny moments there is nothing in this film to help it stand apart from a cluttered and lazy genre.
3/5
